Ever since being acquitted for Trayon Martin’s murder in 2013, George Zimmerman keeps finding himself in the news. Generally it is for domestic violence but this time it was because someone tried to shoot him.
During the afternoon on Monday he experienced minor injuries after someone fired a shot at him in Lake Mary, FL according to Wesh2 News.The man who fired a shot into Zimmerman’s SUV was Matthew Apperson of Seminole County. This is not the first time the two have had a dispute. Back in September Apperson accused Zimmerman of trying to kill him during a road rage incident.

Zimmerman was treated at Central Florida Regional Hospital because he was hit in the face by glass and debris but otherwise seems fine.
His attorney, Don West said he does not think Zimmerman will be charged:Law enforcement will do their job. They’ll decide what charges to file. I’m confident George will not be charged. It doesn’t surprise me this fellow would say (that) George waived a gun or did something. He’s in a lot of trouble. That’s a very serious crime. You know, the circumstances would suggest that if he didn’t want to kill him, he certainly didn’t care if he did.
Apperson has not been arrested or charged with the shooting. His attorney, Mark NeJame said:
Zimmerman’s truck with a bullet hole in the passenger window.I am extremely confident that this will show (Apperson) acted in self-defense.
